Coding: Tips and Tricks

Coding: Tips and Tricks

Hey y’all! So I know a lot of people have been getting into the coding here on foopets. There are a lot of different kinds of codings you can do on your pet profile and I know some people still aren’t sure how they work. Well, I’m here to help you out a bit (hopefully)! An example of different kinds of codings you can use are on Dany’s profile. On there I have included a mouse coding, background coding, and music coding. Now, these are just a couple of the millions of things you could do! Let’s get started, shall we? Also; all codes you want on your pet profile is to put posted to your profile when you click edit to edit your profile.

Background Codings

For background codings, you can either have “repeated” background or “fitted” background. Both are found below….

TIP ~ On google, you can see size dimensions when you click on an image before blowing it up full screen. For example, the one below is “1280 × 720”. They will always be located there on google.

TIP ~ If you click on an image and it takes you to a website before straight to the picture (happens with a lot of wallpaper websites) then the picture will generally not work (as it has not worked for me yet).

Popup/Javascript Codings

These codings are the popups you see on people’s profiles with a “warning” message of some sort or just a “hello welcome to so-and-so’s profile”! Whichever you use, it is a great and fun way to show a message! Insert the text you want where it says “TEXT HERE”.

For this coding, you have to go to a website, but since outside links are not allowed on foo, you will have to search them for yourself. If you search on google for “tumblr music player” it should be the first choice. The length of the coding will be different for how many songs you want to play. The fun thing about this is that you can customize it to auto-play, replay after done, and shuffle. The SCM player does stay on another page if you change pages, so you have to refresh to make it go away. Another player is the Billy Player.

TIP: SoundCloud works well for song URLs if using SCM player

Mouse Codings

Again, this coding you have to go to a website to get the codings. There are many out there, and like I said above, you can go to google and search “tumblr mouse cursors” for a bunch of different sites. Many of them work well, but I found one that I really like with lots of choices.

Extra Codings

These codings are just for fun for your profile! Some may be ones that others have already discovered, but just for fun, here is a couple of the ones I’ve been shown!

I love this and thanks to QueenKate- we can all enjoy it! So check out her thread here for some fun, colorful, and beautiful codings for your profile! Quick coding below.. Color Only one is below, Script/Font and Color is under the Color Only coding.

If you’re using the Billy music player, you need a direct MP3 link, which can be a bit tricky to get. I use Drop Box and then change the URL to a direct download which works fine. If you want some help Fire let me know :) I’ve done a few for people haha.
